Default h2b or h22 or b18c1

ok i got a gsr already in my car running with blox intake manifold, dc sport header, light weight flywheel and exedy stage 2 clutch i want something faster that i can turbo in a couple months

i was wondering what i should do?

A full h22 swap and sell my full gsr swap

An h2b swap cuz i already got the trans, but i was wondering if my new flywheel and clutch would fit cuz they have only like 1500 miles on them

or keep my gsr and build it

it's ultimately up to you, what's the car used for, just dd. Any track time? H2b and h22 for that matter have lots of torque, and since you're going to be putting on as turbo on either one, you'll have a lot of power. IMO forget the fab work involved in the others and just boost the motor you got. Easier, could be cheaper, etc.


(although, is your gsr badly abused? if so, i'd build it.

I agree with these guys. The B18C1 is an awesome platform. Either way you are going to spend the money going turbo and purchase the motor, so why not dump that 3k+ into some headwork, block work, and internals? Unless your block is cracked and you absolutely hate your motor. Even if it is cracked you can always pick up bare blocks for 100
